It's not about it being harder overall, but about the starting experience.

Now, since I haven't played it myself - I'm finding it hard to separate fact from fiction. Going by the official forums - a LOT of players are very upset with both the technical issues (many can't even boot the damn thing) - and the changes.

Based on your feedback, everything is just peachy.

What about the wolves/bears/basilisks and so on in the starter areas? Because if they're hand-placed and still present - then I guess it's less of an issue than it seemed to be.
